Gayle King, Jesse Watters Share Flight Selfie

News summary

CBS anchor Gayle King posted a smiling selfie with Fox News host Jesse Watters after the two were unexpectedly seated next to each other on a cross‑country flight for over four hours; King wrote that “a good time was had” and quipped she’s “saving [his] number.” The photo and caption prompted mixed reactions online, with some praising civility between journalists from opposite networks and others condemning King for appearing friendly with a host who has a record of inflammatory, misogynistic, and racist remarks. Watters told viewers on his show that King was “cool” during the flight. Outlets noted the pair’s brief history after a 2019 on‑air mix‑up for which Watters apologized, and coverage framed the episode as part of a broader debate over civility versus accountability in media interactions.
